The Loyal Officer: Audrey Manor Series Book Two

By Marie Leick

For fans of regency romance like Julia Quinn's Bridgerton and the comedic writing of Tessa Dare, author Marie Leick presents the stories of the Lane siblings - Edward, the Duke of Millington, his brother Miles, and his half-sister Franny, who reside at Audrey Manor.

By the age of one and twenty, Lady Sophia Lane suffered the devastation of losing her beloved husband on the battlefield of Waterloo and the birth of a stillborn son. She lost her appetite. Her once curvy figure had dissipated into a waif-like creature. She lost her desire to live. She would stay in bed for days. Her lady's maid was beside herself on how to help Her Ladyship. Sophia hid it all from her family and did her best to put on a fa ade of pleasantries for everyone.

Everything changed when a disheveled soldier knocked on her door. Covered in mud and dried blood, the officer fainted onto the foyer's floor. Sophia jumped into action and set about to nurse the soldier back to health. Upon searching the tattered rags of the soldier's uniform, a battlefield contract was discovered. The promise was between the soldier and Captain Miles Lane, Sophia's husband. If death came to Miles during battle, the solider, who was convalescing in her home, was to take care of Sophia and the unborn child. But how could Sophia marry Captain William Brewer, the best friend of her late husband? Especially since she could only love one man and that man was dead.

Read the steamy romance of The Loyal Officer and find out what happens between Sophia and William. Will they fall in love, or will the sadness Sophia suffers from ruin her chance to be happy again?

The Loyal Officer ravishes your senses and is so titillating that the author, Marie Leick, does not want her own mother to know she wrote it
